Today's mail ............ Thank you, Dot

Look what today's mail brought me.These lovely dolls arrived all the way from Dot in Australia. The gorgeous icicle doll on the left is Dot's to me in a one on one trade --- and the fantastic stacking doll on the right accompanied the icicle doll as a gift from Dot. I have admired these darling dolls since I saw the first one she made posted on her blog. And now, can you believe, Dot has sent me one of my own? Thank you, thank you, Dot --- they shall always be cherished.

Jackie - adorable!!! Love your beading and your blog! Just sent you the confirmation for the 2008 Bead Journal Project and had to check out your site... looking forward to see what you create for the 2008 BJP!
